Re: Need help on live trading vs. backtest (DATA1/DATA2)

Hi TJ,

thanks for the quick reply.
Unfortunately I have kind of the opposite problem. I want my system to autotrade according to my DATA1 session template which is 24/5. But the trades are not executed during hours which are not part of the DATA2 session template.

Re: Problem with input parameter of type true/false [SOLVED]

Hi ABC,

thanks for your comment.
Yes, I guess if there's no other solution I will convert everything from true/false to 1/0.

Problem with input parameter of type true/false [SOLVED]

Re: Walk Forward Analysis - what parameters to use?
